Connect multiple clients to the same database

Erick Cavazos

I have an instance created in SQL Server on my server, inside this, I have created a database named "Jira Service Desk".

From a client computer I installed Jira Service Desk, during the installation it asks me where I have my hosted database, which I give the configurations of my server and the equipment is connected correctly, in the database of the server creates the corresponding tables .

The problem comes when I want to install Jira Service Desk on a second client. I get to the section where I ask to which database I want to connect, I put the same data and I get an error saying that the database is not empty, which will not let me continue.

I need more than 5 users to connect to the same database to control the incidents that are dealt with in the company and that each incident is generated continuously (user 1 - ticket 1, user 1 - ticket 2, user 2 - ticket 3, etc.)

What can I do?

NO! Never connect more than one JIRA Server to a database.

You absolutely can not do that. Your ideas of separation are completely wrong and you need to be doing that in the application. I'm not sure where you might have got the idea that you can even do this.

JIRA is a server - your clients are browsers and systems connecting to the single server over REST.

Okay, I see. So how can I make the technical support team to access the database and see the current incidents, in progress, etc?

We have not used the services of Jira before, so we do not know many of the concepts.

What you tell me is

- Create a Database in SQL
- Install Jira (software, core or service desk) on the server.
- Connect Jira to the server database.

that's it?

How will my technical support team access jira?

This sounds strange – You do not deploy JIRA applications to clients. You host JIRA applications on a server, connect the server to the database, and then users/clients access JIRA through a web-browser. Can you please confirm that you are approaching it this way?

You run JIRA as a service, as it's intended. Then your support team have accounts for it, and well, they use it.

It's the same as you're doing here, or when you have an email service or google or or or or almost any other standard web server application you can find.

I've already said you use a browser to connect to it.

Ok, in the case of customers who have contracted our support services, how do they access our support services? How can they consult us?
